My guess is he fell off the wagon or decided to break up the band again, or both.

To be fair, Deaner said ween aint breaking up the last time ween broke up.

I love lo-fi obnoxious poo poo so early ween is perfect for me. Anything before GWS is a little too unpolished, though (they had some cassettes you can find on websites). One time I was listening to The Pod and my speakers weren't hooked up securely - it added a sort of noisy bass distortion to everything and I was asking myself "why does this album sound so much more awesome today?". After I fixed it, I tried to reproduce it again later but could never get it the same.

me your dad posted:Nowadays some of those songs can sound pretty ridiculous when sung by a 47 year old Gener. The funniest part for me is watching the sound guys work with 100% earnest professionalism when they're performing a song like Nan on stage

My favorite is watching the professional sound guys at arena shows being forced to mix those insane early songs like it's Serious Business

hexwren posted:every time he tried to feel his way through one of those guitar lines, he'd always instinctively try and resolve it into blooze nonsense and, like, yeah, sure this youtube jagoff is a better guitar player than me, but it's like, gently caress, listen to what you're trying to play because that ain't it the dude has an insanely trained ear for picking out chords and you're mad he couldn't nail it on his first try, the very first time hearing a song by a band he's also never heard before, from a live performance on youtube uploaded at 480p

I don't know anything about the phish incident but the guy seems generally stoked about ween, enjoys gener's facial expressions and deaner's screaming guitar. He asks for more ween recommendations at the end. It's not cringey or anything. He is a guitar teacher and he is trying to replicate the song as a little challenge, which seems to be what his youtube series is about. Y'all need to relax.

To me an obvious aspect of ween's staying power has been their evolution from their early bedroom recordings to polished studio recordings. If they had stayed lo-fi it would have gotten old and boring very fast and they would have been forgotten as a brief novelty act of the early 90s. I don't want to imagine a ween without C&C, White Pepper, or Quebec. La Cucaracha is good too but you can tell they were struggling which direction to take it.

as much as deaner loves the brown stuff, i think he is secretly a perfectionist and studies the recordings and videos to improve his game

I of course have a soft spot for the first night of the reunion show in broomfield, 2016, because I was there. opening with "what deaner was talking about" was really sweet. then watching them jam together and the confetti flying during "roses are free" was magical to witness. especially because i ate a bunch of edibles before the show. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0O8TURtvl8o&t=150s polyester concept fucked around with this message at 18:41 on Nov 5, 2020 |

aaron was somewhat active on twitter around 2016 for a while there. i remember him posting something on the day that prince died, but he promptly deleted it. he mostly just posted youtube links to cool music. my guess is he is really loving depressed, and combined with having relapsed, doesn't want to be seen or heard by anyone. it is a really lovely place to be in. hah oh wait wtf, he is still tweeting poo poo recently https://twitter.com/GeneWeen/status/1319872165861232640

la cucaracha has some really good poo poo on it. it feels maybe a little by-the-numbers or contrived which is why it's not a favorite and the band even says it's not their best work. but whatever it's still good https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TggDxLF4FgQ polyester concept fucked around with this message at 17:08 on Oct 6, 2021 |
